I carried this over from the Life With COPD Board: QUOTE Lord help us, and those we love...
« Thread Started on Today at 7:02pm » Posted by Toni -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I know we are on overload now, and this is a test of our strength. I'm so sorry and saddened that our friend Vicki has finally reached a number for a family member of John's (his mother). He passed away 2 weeks ago, this is Vicki's message and may it prove how heartfelt and involved we are with each other: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hey Toni, I don't know how much more we can all take. And I don't know any other way to say this, except to come right out and tell you. I just tried calling another number I'd found for John, and got his Mother. She told me he'd passed away 2 weeks ago, and COPD and acute renal failure were the cause. Honestly, I can't bear this about the internet--that people can just disappear and others might never know what happened to them. I'm too distressed to say anything on the forum right now. Please just do whatever you thinks best about telling everyone. Hugs, Vicki END QUOTE My prayers go out to JohnLUK's family and friends.  |

Oh dear is that bad news, I know he had not contacted recently but I hoped it was something minor.
He also was part of our email group that included Mary, others I still see around Vicki NC and Penny PA, must have been 6 years back, another I still write to Nanci IL.
We exchanged Rugby talk also, he from Wales a nation as keen on rugby as us.
I am just flattened.

I didn't know you for long John but while I did we shared quite a bit. I will miss you friend. Wish I had met you earlier. Rest in Peace. I am still in shock. I am just having trouble believing you are gone. God comfort your family.  |
